Which is correct. Il fait beau or il y a du soleil?
I was interested in this use of "fameuse", does it have a hint of "infamous" here, rather than meaning "famous" ?
(I know fameux or fameuse can mean famous or celebrated in the context of food.)
I know it is only correct to say Je vain manger à huit heures. However, in response to À quelle heure ?, I've seen the phrase At nine o'clock written as both À neuf heures and A neuf heures. Are both A and À correct to use in this instance?
is the near future in the imperfect the same as the subjective? To translate something such as I "was/were going to" seems subjective to me.
Why "a bu dans ma gourde"? Drank in my flask? Why not "a bu de ma gourde"?
To be completely honest, I couldn't follow this lesson at all. Maybe it's just the way it was written but I found it almost impossible to actually comprehend what was being conveyed and I had to seek out other sources.
Thanks for everything you guys do! I usually love Kwiziq lessons, but I feel like this one needs a rethink.
For "And I've worked in the same town...", I put "J'ai travaillé dans the la même ville..." but the correct answer is given as "Et je travaille dans la même ville...".
Why is the present conjugation of travailler used instead of the compound tense?
As I read this lesson, I see two directives: 1) with trouver one always needs "que" and 2) with trouver, sometimes you don't need "que". Please explain a deeper difference between the two usages presented.
I used the verb s'éveiller for "wake up", but it was not given as one of the alternatives. I thought "se lever" meant "to get up (out of bed)", rather than specifically to wake up. Can you clarify?
